Freebies for Caledon Oxbridge...

After a lot of time, as this is nothing like I've done before, there are two finished gentleman's avatars on their way to Caledon Oxbridge. The clothing is relatively easy, simple pants, shirt, vest (in Caledon tartan of course), and jacket. A bit of an ascot at the neck, and shirt cuffs. The really hard part was to do the men's skins. Having never worked with photographs before it was a bit of a challenge to line up all of the features so that they would work on any SL avatar and not just the ones I created for this set. But, I think I can safely say that it was a success. And, without further ado, here they are...















The hair is only offered in brown for the freebies, but it will also be released in other colors very soon (as soon as I finish boxing the silly things ;)).

Trick or Treat...

Halloween is my favorite holiday...well, excepting Hogswatch. Either way, I love Halloween, so Kleineschwein will be celebrating by having a bit of a treasure hunt. Starting October 30th at 12AM (midnight)SLT and continuing through November 1st 12AM(midnight) SLT, there will be items in small pumpkin packages in each of our shop locations. Of course, the best treat will be in the main store location ;). The pumpkins will be either obvious or hidden, and no, I will not give hints. In addition, Anyone who purchases any Kleineschwein items during this time period will be able to receive a second item of equal or lesser cost for free. Please visit the Kleineschwein main location in Caledon Eyre http://slurl.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Eyre/41/107/23 to pick up the notecard with all of the fine print. This treasure hunt is open to both Kleineschwein group members and to new folk, so please feel free to bring your friends! We will also be partying New Orleans style in the New Toulouse sim on Halloween, so join us, we'll be having a blast!

Skin Making addiction...

Sooooo, I haven't gotten to the tutorial writing yet... big surprise ;) Instead I was sidetracked by Eloh Eliott's .psd files and skin making. Was it easy? ummm, no. Was it fun? Heck yes! So, here is what I came up with...









































































... and this is the work in progress. It is what will be one of nine Chinese opera mask skins. As you can see, it is still just the rough, but the colors are in the right places.
